Malcolm-Jamal Warner (born August 18, 1970 in Jersey City, New Jersey) is an actor.

With appearances and roles on many televisions shows and films, he is best known for his role as Theo Huxtable on the NBC sitcom, The Cosby Show from 1984 to 1992. He also starred in Jeremiah, was the voice of The Producer character on The Magic School Bus and Malcolm & Eddie.

Warner was on the CBS sitcom Listen Up with Jason Alexander and the host of the literacy-promoting children's show CBS Storybreak.

He has also directed music videos including British RnB group Five Star's "I Love You For Sentimental Reasons" (1994).

While he is quick to point out that his name is Malcolm, not Theo, he says he has no problem with being recognized as Theo Huxtable, and contends that he has nothing but positive memories of The Cosby Show.

  • Warner was named after Malcolm X and jazz musician Ahmad Jamal.
  • Was nominated for an Emmy in 1986 at age 16 for his portrayal of Theo Huxtable on the 1980s hit "The Cosby Show".
  • Ranked #32 in VH1's list of the "100 Greatest Kid Stars".
  • Warner appeared in the fifth tournament of the celebrity game show Celebrity Poker Showdown. Episodes are normally two hours in length, but the episode featuring Warner's victory was only an hour long. This was because he won the game in quick, dominating fashion, eliminating his four opponents (Jesse Metcalfe, Andrea Parker, Fred Willard, and Heather Graham) in just 19 hands. This win gave Warner a spot in the tournament's championship game which would ultimately be won by Brad Garrett.
  • Featured in Michael Jackson's music video for "Liberian Girl". He also appeared in New Edition's N.E. Heartbreak music video as well as Whodini's "Funky Beat" with Bobby Brown and many other stars.
  • He dated the late Michelle Thomas
